LIFESTYLE
If it was within our power to stop time, most of us would jump
through hoops to do it. In our adult lives, there never seems to
be enough time to do the things we should be doing. It is such a
source of frustration that we would give anything to stop time, or
at least slow it down.
The bad news is there is no way to stop the passage of time. The
good news is we have absolute control over how we use the time
we do have. Once we learn how to control the way we spend our
time, we have the power to attain our vision. Success is within
reach for anyone who knows how to channel their time towards
pursuits that help them achieve their dreams.
THE CURRENCY OF TIME
‘Time is a currency you can only use once, so be careful how you
spend it.’ Famous Quote.
Successful people are not great because they have the luxury of
longer days. They have the same 24-hour days as regular people.
The only difference is how they choose to spend their time. They
control their days instead of letting time pass them by. Most of
them are deliberate about what they invest their time in.
If you wish to succeed in any aspect of your life, you must learn
to control your time. You must learn how to manage it, allocating
your time according to priority. Do the important things first.
Leave little room for distractions that can take your focus away.
The key to good time management is to do an assessment of
where you spend most of your time. You can only take control
of time when you know how much productive time you have
on your hands. It is vital to take stock of how you normally
spend your day. Once you work that out, you can then make the
adjustments you need to and take back control of your days.
